@altschmerz I think there is something wrong with your corn chips if you're seeing corn in your poop.
No thanks... I read it once and that was enough corn for me

I see the Bible as similar to Aesop's Fables. The stories are obviously fictitious, but the morals of the stories are often beneficial. Seen this way, there is little danger in reading the Bible. I find some good ethics in the Sermon on the Mount, for example.
The problem arises when people take the mythology of the Bible as literal history. And the worst problem is when people who teach that the myths are reality use them to scare their credulous followers into giving them money. That's what churches do; they are scams based on myths.

Yep. One should always trust talking donkeys.
I don't care how their god told them to live, I'm still not converting to Judaism. Wading through the bible for morality is like being in quicksand. It will eventually suck the life out of you.
@SiouxcitySue We must judge carefully. Some biblical "ethics" are downright evil. Others are very good, and there is every color of the rainbow between the two extremes. It is, after all, a book written by fallible humans.
